Warmer temperatures due to climate change is resulting in more home runs in Major League Baseball.
Home runs are becoming more frequent in Major League Baseball due to climate change, a new study finds.
The team examined data from more than 100,000 MLB games played between 1962 and 2019, and 220,000 individual hits between 2015 and 2019. They discovered that a reduction in air density results from higher temperatures and"was the driving force" in why homers increased on hotter days. Additionally, climate change may have contributed to approximately 1% of home runs in that time frame. However, by 2100, that number could jump to 10% compared with averages between 2010 and 2019 if greenhouse gas emissions and climate change continue at their current pace.
The team also accounted for outside influences that could impact a dinger, such as athletes using performance drugs and ball and bat construction to determine what if any impact those factors could have on home runs.—Which animals are likeliest to survive climate change?
